Alright, how about the original groomer: the Bradley Packer, invented by Steve Bradley, then GM at Winter Park, CO. The Packer "Pilots" quite literally took their lives into their own hands running these things. The primary goal was to be able to smooth out surface lift tracks. But, quite unfortunately, Steve also intended them to do away with moguls, freely admitting that he wanted them smoothed out because he was no good at skiing bumps!
Anyone running one of those things must have had quads of steel.
